thanks very much for being with us. let me share with you from "the new york times" this morning -- what is going to happen? guest: "disarray" is a word i used yesterday as well after we got this announcement. i cannot tell you exactly what will happen but the president's last offer from tuesday is still a good offer. it is still a balanced offer and one that deals with long term deficit reduction. it has tax revenue coming spending cuts, and i think it is the right framework for moving forward. i also think that the democratic party in the house -- you need 218 votes total to pass something. i think we could find easily 109 votes from the democratic party and 109 from the republican party. you could put together enough votes in the house to pass a package that is balanced. host: let me go back to what is in the president's plan. raising taxes on those whose incomes are above $400,000 a year and changing the inflation measure for social security benefits than they do you support that? guest: i personally do not support
